Chapter 501 The prototype of the army
Use flexibility to dodge attacks and find opportunities to defeat with one blow...
Although he is not as strong as Lei Pokong, he is better because of his smaller stature. If you can't beat head-to-head, you can try Jian Bai's method.
As she thought about it, her eyes gradually became sharper.
The audience below also cheered at the beginning, and now they all hold their breath, looking forward to the outcome of this battle.
From the appearance, both of them have used up a lot of strength, but they have not yet shown their defeat.
After a moment of pause, Lei Pokong raised his sword again and slashed at Tian Meng with a loud shout.
This time, Tian Meng did not choose to fight head-on, but used his dexterity to dodge the blow.
Lei Pokong's sword hit the ground, and then he immediately raised his hand and attacked Tian Meng again. Just like last time, Tian Meng stepped back and dodged the blow.
In the next dozens of moves, Tian Meng did not choose to take them head-on, either by releasing his force or avoiding them. But soon she faced a problem. Her figure gradually reached the edge of the martial arts stage.
If you take a few steps back, you risk falling. By then, the space for hiding will be much smaller.
At the same time, everyone, including Lei Pokong, also realized that Tian Meng was going to lose.
The continuous dodging showed that Tian Meng no longer had the strength to resist Lei Pokong's attack. As long as you are forced to the edge of the martial arts stage, there is only one way to die.
Lei Pokong's offensive became more and more fierce, leaving Tian Meng no room for counterattack.
Another slash came out, Tian Meng dodged sideways, and at the same time, he kicked the ground with his right foot and took a step forward. The distance between the two people was much closer.
At the same time, she raised the big sword in her hand and slashed towards Lei Poukong from top to bottom. In a hurry, Lei Pokong hurriedly pulled back the sword in his hand to resist the blow.
Just when the weapons were about to collide, Tian Meng's hands suddenly left the handle of the knife, pulled out the dagger he carried around his waist, and stabbed Lei Pokong in the neck.
Lei Pokong was already aware of this blow and subconsciously wanted to block it. However, although the sword was powerful, it was far less flexible than other weapons. At this distance, he could no longer resist Tian Meng's attack.
The dagger stopped at his neck. If he moved any further, Lei Pokong's neck would be scratched.
"I lost."
Lei Pokong smiled bitterly, let go of the weapon in his hand, and let it fall to the ground.
"Concession."
Tian Meng cupped his fists.
"fantastic!"
"Good fight!"
The people below cheered. This battle lasted for a long time. It was a head-to-head encounter in the front. Later, Tian Meng showed his defeat, but relied on the dagger to turn defeat into victory. It was really exciting.
"Tian Meng, well done!"
Lin Xiaofan handed a bowl of water to Tian Meng who came back and couldn't help but praise it.
"Just luck."
Tian Meng spoke humbly, but the smile on his face could not be suppressed. Using your own mind to defeat enemies who are stronger than yourself is more satisfying than defeating countless enemies who are weaker than yourself.
Lei Pokong came closer and saluted:
"Master Champion Hou."
"Brother Lei fought really well. I admire you. Are you willing to join my team as a general?"
Lin Xiaofan said.
"I am willing."
Lei Pokong said that he was here just for the election.
"It's almost time. Everyone, please leave now and come back tomorrow."
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Lin Xiaofan spoke to the people below.
There was no excitement anymore, and the people dispersed one after another.
In the next fifteen days, at least a thousand people will come to campaign every day, and the number of soldiers has been expanded to 3,000, making it possible to form a medium-sized army.
At the same time, the number of generals has also been expanded to three. One was Lei Pokong who came to campaign on the first day, and the second was Lei Potian who came with Lei Pokong.
The two are brothers, but Lei Potian's martial arts skills are much inferior to Lei Pokong's. He Tianmeng lost after fifty rounds of battle.
As for the third person, his name is Duanmu Liangjiang, and he is Duanmu Liangchuan's brother.
When Duanmu Liangchuan became the Prime Minister of Daqian, he also wanted to bring Duanmu Liangjiang and Duanmu Ke'er to the capital. However, when Duanmu Liangjiang heard about Lin Xiaofan's selection of generals, he, who had wanted to make contributions since he was a child, also hurriedly came.
His martial arts skills are indeed not bad. After fighting Tian Meng for more than a hundred rounds, he defeated Tian Meng head-on.
Looking at the gold that originally formed a small mountain, there were now less than five hundred taels left. Today, after waiting all morning, dozens of people came to try.
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth and said:
"Fellow fellows, today is the last day the martial arts stage will be open again and it will be closed tomorrow. If you still want to join my army, you will have a chance next year."
"Master Champion Hou, you must come to recruit troops next year."
There were many happy faces on the faces of the people below. There would be a chance next year.
In the next year, they must work hard to strengthen their strength and strive to join Lin Xiaofan's army next year.
"If you want to join my team next year, it will be much more difficult."
Lin Xiaofan said.
Including the city guards, he could only recruit more than 5,000 people, and now more than 3,000 quotas have been used. By next year, there will definitely be more people coming here, and the recruitment standards can definitely be improved.
Moreover, the strength of these soldiers recruited this year will definitely increase greatly after a year of training. It will not be easy for latecomers to catch up with the training progress.
"Master Champion, I will train my strength when I get back. No matter how difficult it is next year, I will definitely join your command."
"Sir, you must come next year."
Many people spoke one after another. They were not fully prepared this year and missed such a good opportunity. They will definitely not miss it again next year.
"Don't worry."
Lin Xiaofan nodded slightly.
Until the sun was about to set, Lin Xiaofan didn't encounter any more surprises. The number of soldiers recruited today was only twenty or thirty, which was far behind compared to before.
At the same time, during these fifteen days, he also had people work overtime to build a temporary camp for the soldiers to live temporarily.
"Duanmu Liangjiang, Lei Potian, Lei Pokong, the three of you will be captains of thousands, and your salary will be three hundred taels of silver per year."
"Chu Qiu, Zheng Tou, Jiang Xin... you will be centurions, and your annual salary will be fifty taels of silver."
"As for the corps commanders and chiefs, they will be selected based on your performance during training."
Lin Xiaofan said.
To recruit such a large number of soldiers, the military salary is not a small amount. Fortunately, the Daqian Congress will provide him with some funding, and in the future he will be able to collect some taxes from the six counties in his fiefdom for military expenses.
"promise."
The soldiers below agreed one after another, shouting loudly, with a bit of military momentum.
Most of those who can be selected are those who have been soldiers and been on the battlefield before, and have a certain foundation.
